American rock singer Lenny Kravitz will sing the theme song to the "Death Note" spinoff "L change the WorLd." This is Kravitz's first theme song for a Japanese film.

The song used will be Kravitz's latest release, "I'll Be Waiting," which went on sale last month.

The use of an American rock artist is not unusual for the franchise. The previous two films featured music by Red Hot Chili Peppers.

"L change the WorLd," directed by Hideo Nakata and starring Kenichi Matsuyama, opens in Japanese theaters on February 9.
